About Helen

- What kind of experience do you have?

I have also worked one-to-one, and with small groups of students in both primary and secondary schools as a volunteer tutor.

I have an up-to-date DBS certification - available on request.

- Tell me about some of your current students.

I am currently working with students in both primary and secondary schools.

My primary school students are reporting a renewed enthusiasm for English, and have achieved great results in their SATs and entrance exams.

My secondary school students have been progressing extremely well. Several students who were very worried that they might not pass English made it through their mocks successfully. Many of my students have excelled, and expect to achieve excellent grades.

I am an experienced tutor offering lessons in English and English Literature. I aim to help my students to develop a genuine enthusiasm for the subject, and to enjoy engaging with and writing texts.

- Do you have a personal message for students?

Learning to understand texts and to communicate clearly is a crucial life skill. I work with my students to help them to improve their skills and enthusiasm for English. I am friendly and approachable, and lessons progress at the pace of the individual. My goal is always to help students to achieve their potential.

A typical English language lesson might involve reading and annotating a text together, and then attempting to answer some exam style questions together. An English literature lesson might involve working on reading and understanding a longer text, discussing key characters and themes, and progressing to answer exam style questions.

A lesson gives you the opportunity to focus on the aspects of English that you need to improve on.
